The GPS antenna may be installed in the vehicle, for instance on the meter or on the cloth rack; it also may be installed outside of the vehicle, for instance on the roof or boot of the vehicle.

The GPS antenna has to be installed at the area no metal frame/structure goes over it. If the vehicles windscreen has installed the anti-explosion tinting film or the insulate tinting, the intensity of the satellite signal may be weaken, in which case we will strongly suggest to install the GPS antenna outside of vehicle.
